When I learned the game initially I was taught that once you passed during a cycle (until someone had won the trick) you could NOT get back into the play. While playing online I found this to not be true as you can pass and the next time it's your turn you can jump back in if you want.

For example:

Player 1 - plays the 5G
Player 2 - plays the 8R
Player 3 - plays the 9R
Player 4 - Passes (but has the Dragon in his hand)
Player 1 - Plays the 10G
Player 2 - Plays the 10R
Player 3 - Plays the Red Phoenix
Player 4 - Can he get back into the game and play the Dragon or does his status remain passed for this cycle/round???

I've tried to find where in the rules it might clarify the issue and could not find one. What are the "official" rules that should be played by?
